https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-7646 - Improve performance of MergeContent / others that read content of many small FlowFiles
Hi, In reference to the ticket above, released in 1.13, the descriptions says "if the FlowFile is small, say 200 bytes, the result is that we perform 2+ disk accesses to read those 200 bytes (even though 4K - 8K is a typical block size and could be read in the same amount of time as those 200 bytes)." To clarify, if the FlowFiles are never more than 1K, and the block size is 4k, does that mean this improvement will read 4 FlowFiles with the resources of 1? This would be a 4:1 improvement. Or in the 200 byte scenario, it would be a 20:1 improvement? Thanks, Ryan
